From the HUD, Hunters can use the '''Upgrade''' button to improve various aspects of their toboggan. 3 areas can be improved upon: Speed, Power, and Special, and there are 3 levels of improvement available for each area. The areas can be improved upon independently from each other, but each area can only be improved in order. Furthermore, the loot required for Special upgrades is not available in [[Green Circle]] courses, so at least one Speed or Power upgrade is required to hunt in Blue Square courses first.

Activities

Collect Arctic Asiago and race down toboggan slopes to glory! Earn upgrades to your toboggan before challenging the Rainbow Racer Mouse to a final showdown! This adventure awards the Winter Aura which grants +5 Luck and bonus loot throughout the Kingdom!

Welcome to this year's Great Winter Hunt celebration: The Extreme Toboggan Challenge!

The King has provided everyone with a basic toboggan so you can get started right away!

Dust off your festive cheeses as these mice love all those old Winter Hunt favourites! However, Arctic Asiago works best as its icy surface greatly reduces friction while flying down the course, giving your toboggan a +1 MPH speed bonus!

No festive cheese? No problem! You can obtain Arctic Asiago from the Premium Shop OR while hunting with any other cheese.

Click the "Launch" button above and check out the available courses. Take on the rival, collect toboggan parts, and upgrade your toboggan to unlock new courses! If you manage to beat the rival to the bottom, you will earn bonus rewards!

Completing courses awards you with valuable toboggan parts which can be used to upgrade your toboggan to further boost your speed and ability to deal with obstacles. If you happen to come across any Toboggan Nitro, you can use that for a substantial speed boost!

So get your sled shined up, grab some cheese and hit the slopes! The course is gonna move ya! See you at the finish line!
